Roland Garros Day 9: Monday, June 2 - Order of Play

[Moxie]

Wow, that was epic. 1'20" set, and Errani pulls it out.

 

[Kirijax]

Errani screams her way to the first set. Will check the scores later. Can't watch anymore or she'll wake up the kids. lol

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Errani 1st 76 (5).....JJ made ufe at the wrong time in that t/break

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

I am really enjoying the Halep v Stephens match....great ball striking from both players
I love the sound the racquet makes when if connects with the ball.

 

[Rose]

I didn't realize how loud Sara was! But GL to her, Lucie, and Simona

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Tough hold from Halep there she leads 5-4

 

[kskate2]

She breaks Ebony and takes the opener 6-4

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Good bhdtl winner from Halep when she took that first set 64

 

[Rose]

Come on Simona! And where is Si Si?

 

[Moxie]

She breaks Ebony and takes the opener 6-4

Remind me why people call her Ebony Smooth?

 

[kskate2]

She breaks Ebony and takes the opener 6-4

Remind me why people call her Ebony Smooth?

Because she's Ebony in color and usually very smooth with her movement and game when she's not making errors.

Because she's Ebony in color and usually very smooth with her movement and game when she's not making errors.

OK, that part I was able to work out by myself, but who made it up? And does anyone call her that outside of the Frontier?

 

[Rose]

Come on Sara finish this up

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Errani d Jankovic 76 (5) 62

Well done Sara!!!!!!!

Don't think it's used outside of this board. It might have been started by RJD or Sunday.

 

[Rose]

Simona is looking good also Since Si Si is MIA I'm cheering for Simona

 

[kskate2]

Oh Halep. That OH was so Novak. The whole court was open and she didn't get it in. :nono

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

^ I cringed when she missed that...................

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Sloane with a DF and Halep breaks back

Neither women can hold their serve in this 2nd set

 

[kskate2]

After a break-fest Simo holds and goes up 5-2 in the 2nd set. One game away
